I love it when family visits!




My Vavó and Vavô came to visit for a whole week! It was the best time I've had since I left their house after Christmas. It was playtime nonstop from when I woke up until I went to bed, minus a few naps here and there. We played, read books, had fun during bath time, and before you knew it the week was over. They tried to pull a fast one on my parents when they tried to pack me away in their luggage. I told them it wouldn't work but it was worth the try. Maybe next time.



My new toy!!!


When my parents take me for a ride I do the usual, which consists of chomping on Piggy and taking a nap. I thought that was all the excitement I was going to get, but when I awoke we were already home and I had a shiny new contraption waiting for me to explore. It's called a "jumperoo" but I call it laughing time. It shouldn't be hard to figure out why, especially if you are around when I am in it. While my parents were glad to hear something that had different music in it than my swing, Dad says it just replaces one song stuck in your head for another. I just have fun jumping around. As you can tell my feet do not quite reach the floor, but the pillows will work until I get bigger. Speaking of growing, I am over the two foot mark now....I'll catch up to Mommy in no time, and 12.5 lbs...that is almost twice as much as when I was born! Well, that's it for now...I'll catch you later, and if you are looking for me, you know where to look.

This week: One big step....or roll!

I spent a lot of time on my tummy time mat, and guess what? It has paid off! I rolled over for the first time on the 27th and now that I know it is as easy as drooling, I'm doing it all the time. I'm not very good going from my tummy to my back yet but I'm working on it. I'm even working on it in the middle of the night. Most of the time I can't get it and get frustrated and have to get mom and dad's attention to roll me back over again because I don't like to sleep on my tummy. It brings back memories of my first weeks when I was up all night with the parents....they loved it then so I'm sure they are excited to experience it again.




I have a lot of toys but you never would have guessed that a bag of frozen veggies would top them all in making me laugh. Check it out:




Well, that's all for this week. Stay tuned for more updates and if you don't see me smiling, you're not trying!!
